Filmmaking Inspirational Thought:

“In an alienated world, culture -obviously – is a deformed and deforming product. To overcome this it is necessary to have a culture of and for the revolution, a subversive culture capable of contributing to the downfall of capitalist society. In the specific case of the cinema – art of the masses par excellence – its transformation from mere entertainment into an active means of de-alienation becomes imperative. Its role in the battle for the complete liberation of man is of primary importance. The camera then becomes a gun, and the cinema must be a guerrilla cinema.” – Toward a Third Cinema, Octavio Getino and Fernando Solanas
